Motivation
• 80% information has a geospatial part.
• GeoLinkedData is an open initiative whose
aim is to enrich the Web of Data with Spanish
geospatial data.

Motivation

• It is publishing diverse information from the
National Geographic Institute (IGN) and
the National Statistics Institute (INE).

Domain Modeling


5


Domain Modeling

• Designing the vocabularies/ontologies that
model a view of the domain at hand.
• Reuse existing vocabularies in full or partially.

6


Geometry Model

• Simple Features Speciﬁcation as base
hyerarchy of geometry types.
• Feature and Geometry are separate objects

Requirements captured at GeoVoCamp Southampton 2011 7


Geometry Model
• A feature can have multiple geometries,
geometries are parameterized (e.g. reference
system, dimension, resolution, temporal aspects)
• Different geometry representations are
resolvable via content negotiation.



Geometry Model

• Topological relations (as per RCC8) can be
inferred or made explicit between geometries.



Geometry Model

Simple Feature Specification 2010 OGC. 10


Geometry Model
• One importante issue: How to handle order
of points in composite geometries?
• Using an order data property.
• rdf:seq
• rdf:List
• SPARQL 1.1 allows to query this.


Data Generation


12


Data Generation
• Adquiere data from heterogenous data sources
and transforme it to RDF using the choose
domain model;
• Or generate new data directly as RDF.

geometry2rdf
Generation of RDF from geospatial relational
databases.

• Conﬁgurable data model
• Support of geo datatypes in RDBMS (e.g.
Oracle, GML, WKT)

Data Publication


19


Data Publication
• Make data accessible on the Web according to
the Linked Data Principles
• Make your dataset visible
• Dataset Repositories (e.g. CKAN)
• Indexing Services (e.g. Sindice, sameas.org)

Exploitation


22


Exploitation

• Develop application that unlocks the value
of the data to provide beneﬁts to a speciﬁc
community of end users.
